I used him since he was a highly ranked DT that fell due to medical/work ethic issues.

Regarding Branch, I'd like to think it's possible that he'd be there that late, if some teams are taking him completely off their boards, but 3rd or 4th Round is probably more realistic. If he's there in Round 3, it would sure be a tempting proposition. How far do you think he'd fall?

Rod Wright was taken by Miami in the 7th, btw.

Edit: I used the 6th Round pick example to continue with the parallel with Rod Wright, as I thought he was eventually drafted in that round.

One good thing out of this, IF the rumors turn out true, we will not have to worry about moving UP to get him in the first.
